Dot Rotten & Lady Shivz

Igbo(y) — Sat, 14 Feb 2009 01:41:28 +0000

South London emcee by the name Dot Rotten said he’d done with the ‘sendings’ and that as he said on Westwoods Show last winter. However, he send for an ‘Industry Hoe’.

Here’s what he had to say to one ‘Lady Shivz‘, which includes phrases such as ‘Course I’ll get brain though that’s sleazy…’ and ‘She said she’d give me a blowjob and a titty wank, why you gettin’ all x-rated, two minutes ago you were talking about studio time’

Download the tune here.

Lady Shiz is having none of it… She talks back using phrases such as ‘He is a fukin fruit cake’ and ‘HAVE U FUKIN LOST DA PLOT’. Hard stuff.

Here’s the full text.

“Say nay”, cool beans.

PEE ES. DOT KILLED IT! SHAYZUS!

Film/Media minded?

The dark heart of racial prejudice still beats within the colourful body LDN.

Here’s a conversation I had with a white female waitress at Frankie & Benny’s in Ilford at Miss Sunshine‘s birthday dinner.

Me: Can I have a steak knife?

Waiter: Yeah, sure. [She smiles]

Me: Thanks.

A FEW MOMENTS LATER…

Me: Thanks. [I take the steak knife]

Waiter: Just promise not to stab anyone! [She laughs jokingly]

Me: Why not? [I snigger sarcastically]

SHE WALKS AWAY FROM OUR TABLE

Ralph Hardy: ‘Ay did she try and drop a stair-rei-ohhhh-typical joke!? [To me]

Me: Minor, Oh well [I say mellowly after a few JD&Coke's]

I felt like Mookey in Spike Lee’s ‘Do The Right Thing’ [being in an Italian restaurant and shit]… Go and Amazon/Play.com/Ebay/Car-park-Chinese-woman the movie if you ain’t seen it, because it’s good.

Here’s what I mean.

A while after the waitresse’s remark, I was slightly pissed and thoughT SHHEETT MAN, SHE’S A BITCH.

Then I got home and watched Master Shortie doing this…

…And though caucasian boys get stick for being white aswell. Made me less pissed.

Cool beans.

Reflections of a Window-Washer by Wasalu ‘Lupe Fiasco’ Jaco

Igbo(y) — Fri, 23 Jan 2009 23:54:20 +0000

The same man that brought us the evocative, haunting, macabre collection of intelligent lyrical pieces, Food & Liquor and The Cool is in the process of writing a book. It’s entitled ‘Reflections of a Window-Washer’ and will follow the release of his final album, L-U-P-End. In Lupe’s words,

It’s about this character who has limited amount of conversation with the world. But he has simulated conversations, as if he had ever went past saying to someone, ”Hi.” It’s a real cerebral kind of piece..99..

Whatever that means :S.

However, the concepts and initiatives in his music have always been impressive so I’m in eager anticipation of a novelistic portrayal of his ideas, unrestricted by limitations of rhyming convention or instrumentals.

One to look out for.

What's he doin' with her, she'll dumb him down.

Guess they’re “starting to feel like smart is cool Lu.”

Hustle

Igbo(y) — Fri, 23 Jan 2009 18:59:04 +0000

If you don’t know, get informed, and timetable it into your Thursday evening. Hustle is the best shit on TV at the moment. Very clever, always a twist that you never see coming (even if you were a vagina with spectacles). If your late then catch up here.

One thing is niggling me. When the dickheads have been conned… How come the gang get away scott free? What’s stopping someone sending round a picture of all their thieving faces to stop anyone else getting a financial parr. And I still think Danny should get brought back in.. Not feelin’ ‘Deano’.
